Drove by the other day, it does appear to be in rough shape with siding coming off, It also looks like it is undergoing some sort of repair.

It wasn't exactly attractive to begin with.

I think they should rename it to "The Dump"

Funny, that is how my wife and I refer to it when we see it on the lake.

Looks the same as it has always looked to me

New view of Weirs to Meredith Bay. The Ossippees and Eagle Island always look great.

It was always a DUMP.
Just like couple of other establishments around here.

Wow that’s a little harsh. Just because it’s not for you doesn’t mean it’s a “dump”. Have you ever been on the Dive? I have, while it’s just a once a year thing for me many others really enjoy it and I didn’t find it to be a dump. It was well kept and clean.

Sometimes you need a really big piece of equipment to haul your boat out of the water!

fatlazyless · 12-03-2020, 07:14 PM

Wow ..... look at that ..... is it still down at Fay's Boat Yard? ...... a crane hired to lift it out like that probably cost at least one thousand dollars ..... wonder what's the real price that got paid to do that?

.... helllllloooooo ....... The Dive ....... what's the latest with The Dive?

And, that Weirs Beach public dock sure seems like the #1 best spot for it, all around the lake ...... it's #1 happy spot ..... a good fit .... it actually looks very distinguished from a distance on a sunny day ..... very bright white and boxy.

For about $22/gal at Walmart you can get exterior semi-gloss paint that would probably stick pretty good to The Dive exterior and make it a bright pink for a high visibility color. Now, bright pink would make it both very distinguished and very distinctive, characteristic of one person or thing, and so serving to distinguish it from others.

...... as seen from one/half to two to five miles away ..... out, across the shimmering waters ....... just look at that bright pink, boxy vessel ..... that's got to be The Dive!

My God, what an eyesore.
The further north you go, the further south you get.

Reminds me of the movie Deliverance.

Snooty? Snotty? Troll much?

MotorHead · 12-04-2020, 03:29 PM

No trolling.

Calling it like it is.

Every time I was at Weirs or the few times we were onboard the Dive was always full of people having a good time, staying safe and no trouble. God forbid people would stop disrespecting a new small business owner for trying to make ends meet.
Good luck in the future, hopefully 2021 will be back to the good ole days when we can actually enjoy the lakes region again

I agree 100%. It’s always busy people seem to enjoy it. They have not been traveling to many sand bars so that isn’t an issue anymore. I wish them the best of luck. So many trying to pee on their corn flakes.
